Hey okay so i've stumbled upon the whole lucid dreaming concept a few times now, but it was only last week when i was falling asleep i realised i couldn't move (i could open my eye lids with alot of strain) and then i thought i might be able to control my dream, and i kind of did a tiny bit but then i woke up

anyway it got me thinking about a parculiar night about 4 years ago

i remember 'waking up' and thinking theres gays hid behind my curtain. and i was really really scared. now i am not at all homophobic and i don't think the fact they were gay made it scary maybe just the presences? but then i went back to sleep.. anyway i've been reading posts and i've read about false awakening. do you think perhaps that experince was a false awakening? and if so i could have maybe controlled it..

also just a query but when u lucid dream does everything appear as normal? apart from fuzzy edges etc, do you know for definate that you're dreaming? i have visions of thinking i'm in a dream and actualy not being and falling down the stairs of something! eeek.
